1. Which was the best day of your life- Wedding day or Homecoming day? submitted by Pink Champagne, Gatorade & MREs
 (^Hey thats me ).... For me it was Homecoming day.  My wedding was great and I loved every second of it, but I already knew I was going to spend the rest of my life with him long before May 15, 2010 (yes our anniversary is coming up!). When I saw him get off that plane it was such a wave of emotions that I will never forget.

2. Were you a part of the joining the military question or did you sign up for the relationship when your man was already in the military? submitted by Cammo Style Love
No he wanted to join ever since he could walk pretty much ha. But he does discuss reenlistment with me etc. I can't keep him from something he enjoys so much.

3. What is your favorite Disney movie and why? submitted by Raising Roscoe
I have not seen any of the recent ones but I guess my favorite The Little Mermaid.

4. What is your favorite family activity to do on the weekends? submitted by Destination: RN!
Run, travel, or cook things together.

5. Where do you secretly wish you could be stationed with you/your SO’s line of work (realistically speaking, not everyone can be stationed on NAS Fiji)? submitted by Wookie & Co.
He is national guard so we do not get stationed anywhere besides tropical and sunny Pittsburgh, PA lol.


Our pup Jake turns 3 today (or 21 in puppy years)! Here he is through the years:

his first bath
bat ears




his auntie emily drew glasses on him- we called this his "henry sweater" just looks like a henry
i got a brother

life is hard being a pup

OPI for Sephora- "Havana Dreams" 3 coats
Did you look at rings together?
We kinda looked around to see what looked good on my finger but I didn't know what he would pick or when he would propose. 


Do you like your ring? Did you from the beginning?...and be honest!
Oh yes I loved it and still do!




How often do you wear your rings?
I take them off when I sleep and clean and go to the gym. Other than that they are always on.


Do you clean your rings?
Sure do I try to do it every two weeks. I have cleaner I got at Bed Bath and Beyond annnd I got this guy off amazon who gets it so close to jewelry store clean its redonk.


Jewel Jet Steam Cleaner



What went through your mind the very first time you saw your ring?
I don't really remember much because the second he got down on his knee i started crying hysterically ha but probably that is was super sparkly and that I loved it :)

I Nailed It #8-Ode to Nail Polish

Since it is Valentine's week I thought I'd show you all how bad my love for nail polish is by writing this awful poem and showing you my alarming numbers of nail polish bottles :)

How do I love thee, let me count the ways:
nail polish- you always fit no matter how much ice cream I eat.
nail polish- if I dont like you, I can change you in a matter of minutes
nail polish- you are cheap and easy
nail polish- you make me happy
nail polish- just when I think I have seen every color of pink imaginable, you surprise me
nail polish- your glitter brightens my dull days sitting behind a computer screen


I counted them..119 bottles and I've worn them all except for the last row which is all new...obsessed much?
Today I have on 2 coats of  Chanel- "No 495 Mica Rose", its in the top row with the square black cap
